What is Urology?

Urology is a subspecialty of surgery that mostly deals with diseases that are related to the urinary tract of both, the male and female body as well as the male reproductive system. Also, being a branch of surgery, it caters to those individuals with urinary conditions that are usually managed surgically, i.e., either minimally invasive, endoscopic or open. These include conditions such as tumours, obstructions, stones, and more. At Apollo Multispeciality Clinic, our Urology Centre comprises of a team of specialists, who each provide complete care and comfort across all urology services and treatment categories, ranging from commonly faced disorders such as kidney stones to extreme medical cases such as uro-oncology.

What is the first step?

At our Urology Centre, the diagnosis of urology problems and diseases begins with a physical examination and review of medical history. It is followed by specific tests such as:

Blood Tests – A blood sample is taken to check for haemoglobin, platelets, sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, urea, creatinine, calcium, magnesium, or phosphate levels. The primary focus is to detect if the kidneys are functioning normally, or if there are issues that are affecting kidney function.

Imaging Tests – Tests such as cystoscopy, ultrasound, computerised scan (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans are used to identify any abnormal structures or growth in the urinary tract system.
